In math, multiples are the products we get while multiplying a number with other numbers. Multiples play a key role in construction and design, counting groups of items, sharing resources equally, and managing time effectively. In this topic, we will learn the essential concepts of multiples of 38.
Now, let us learn more about multiples of 38. Multiples of 38 are the numbers you get when you multiply 38 by any whole number, along with zero. Each number has an infinite number of multiples, including a multiple of itself.
In multiplication, a multiple of 38 can be denoted as 38 × n, where ‘n’ represents any whole number (0, 1, 2, 3,…). So, we can summarize that:
Multiple of a number = Number × Any whole number
For example, multiplying 38 × 1 will give us 38 as the product. Multiples of 38 will be larger or equal to 38.
Multiples of 38 include the products of 38 and an integer. Multiples of 38 are divisible by 38 evenly. The first few multiples of 38 are given below:
TABLE OF 38 (1-10) | |
---|---|
38 x 1 = 38 |
38 x 6 = 228 |
38 x 2 = 76 |
38 x 7 = 266 |
38 x 3 = 114 |
38 x 8 = 304 |
38 x 4 = 152 |
38 x 9 = 342 |
38 x 5 = 190 |
38 x 10 = 380 |
TABLE OF 38 (11-20) | |
---|---|
38 x 11 = 418 |
38 x 16 = 608 |
38 x 12 = 456 |
38 x 17 = 646 |
38 x 13 = 494 |
38 x 18 = 684 |
38 x 14 = 532 |
38 x 19 = 722 |
38 x 15 = 570 |
38 x 20 = 760 |
Now, we know the first few multiples of 38. They are 0, 38, 76, 114, 152, 190, 228, 266, 304, 342, 380,...
Understanding the multiples of 38 helps solve mathematical problems and boost our multiplication and division skills. When working with multiples of 38, we need to apply it to different mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
38, 76, 114, 152, and 190 are the first five multiples of 38. When multiplying 38 from 1 to 5 we get these numbers as the products.
So, the sum of these multiples is:
38 + 76 + 114 + 152 + 190 = 570
When we add the first 5 multiples of 38 the answer will be 570.
While we do subtraction, it improves our comprehension of how the value decreases when each multiple is subtracted from the previous one. 38, 76, 114, 152, and 190 are the first five multiples of 38. So, let us calculate it as given below:
38 - 76 = -38
-38 - 114 = -152
-152 - 152 = -304
-304 - 190 = -494
Hence, the result of subtracting the first 5 multiples of 38 is -494.
To calculate the average, we need to identify the sum of the first 5 multiples of 38, and then divide it by the count, i.e., 5. Because there are 5 multiples present in the calculation. Averaging helps us to understand the concepts of central tendencies and other values. We know the sum of the first 5 multiples of 38 is 570.
38 + 76 + 114 + 152 + 190 = 570
Next, divide the sum by 5:
570 ÷ 5 = 114
114 is the average of the first 5 multiples of 38.
The product of given numbers is the result of multiplying all of them together. Here, the first 5 multiples of 38 include: 38, 76, 114, 152, and 190. Now, the product of these numbers is:
38 × 76 × 114 × 152 × 190 = 1,072,337,920
The product of the first 5 multiples of 38 is 1,072,337,920.
While we perform division, we get to know how many times 38 can fit into each of the given multiples. 38, 76, 114, 152, and 190 are the first 5 multiples of 38.
38 ÷ 38 = 1
76 ÷ 38 = 2
114 ÷ 38 = 3
152 ÷ 38 = 4
190 ÷ 38 = 5
The results of dividing the first 5 multiples of 38 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
While working with multiples of 38, we make common mistakes. Identifying these errors and understanding how to avoid them can be helpful. Below are some frequent mistakes and tips to avoid them:
Lisa is organizing a charity event and wants to prepare gift bags. Each gift bag contains 38 items. If she plans to prepare gift bags for 5 consecutive weeks, creating the same number of gift bags each week, how many items will she need in total after 5 weeks?
190 items
Each week, Lisa prepares gift bags containing 38 items. To find the total number of items needed over 5 weeks, we multiply the number of items per week by the number of weeks.
Items per week = 38
Number of weeks = 5
38 × 5 = 190
Lisa will need 190 items in total after 5 weeks.
Raj, Meera, and Ali are organizing a local sports event, and they decide to distribute medals in the order of the first three multiples of 38. How many medals will each of them distribute based on this series?
The first three multiples of 38 are 38, 76, and 114. Raj will distribute 38 medals, Meera will distribute 76 medals, and Ali will distribute 114 medals.
The first three multiples of 38 are:
38 × 1 = 38
38 × 2 = 76
38 × 3 = 114
Therefore, Raj distributes 38 medals, Meera distributes 76 medals, and Ali distributes 114 medals.
At an art exhibition, there are 38 paintings displayed in each of the 4 galleries. How many paintings are there in total across all galleries?
152 paintings
To find the total number of paintings, we need to multiply the number of galleries by the number of paintings in each gallery.
Number of galleries = 4
Number of paintings in each gallery = 38
38 × 4 = 152
Therefore, there are 152 paintings in total across all galleries.
Emily has a collection of 6 album boxes. Each box contains 38 albums. How many albums does she have in total?
228 albums
To find the total number of albums Emily has, we multiply the number of boxes by the number of albums in each box.
Number of boxes = 6
Number of albums in each box = 38
6 × 38 = 228
So, Emily has 228 albums in total.
Kevin is stacking crates in his warehouse. He places 38 crates in the first stack, 76 crates in the second stack, and 114 crates in the third stack. How many crates are there in total across all three stacks?
228 crates
The first stack has 38 crates, the second stack has 76 crates, and the third stack has 114 crates. To find the total number of crates, we add the number of crates in each stack.
38 + 76 + 114 = 228
Therefore, there are 228 crates in total across all three stacks.
